Premium is actually one thing I don't have a strong opinion on - it's a reasonable addition to the site and helps them fund. It could have more robust features but additional votes (when they work) + a few quality of life things and the potential for Subscriber Only posts is okay.
I'm not entirely sure how they pull off Sub Only posts, which is something I've idly wondered at a few times, but yeah... that at least is an individual user choice and I don't feel like it's predatory by nature. The site is still perfectly useable without it, so I think it's a fair addition all in all.
The criticism is fair though, for a lot of folks it's probably not worth it. Thanks for the comment!
Exactly it will be worth it if value is being put first rather than money. Ohh and you most welcome 😊😊
